Which is the world’s first country to ban all Vulture-Toxic Drugs known so far?

Correct Answer: B. Bangladesh

Bangladesh has recently banned the painkiller ketoprofen used widely to treat cattle. With this, it became the first country to ban all the drugs known so far to be toxic to vultures. Over 10 years ago, the country banned the veterinary drug diclofenac. As per Ornithologists, this is a landmark step to save the small existing population of Asia’s globally threatened vultures.
